- Vinification : Manual harvest. Careful selection of grapes according to origin and ripeness; the entire harvest is destemmed. Fermentation in stainless steel or concrete thermo-regulated vats. Vatting time of 15 to 20 days with gentle extraction methods (pumping over and delestage).
- Ageing: 50% in vats to preserve the freshness of the fruit; 50% in oak barrels to refine the structure, volume and length of the wine.
